Functional Medicine

Functional Medicine is a personalized model that empowers patients and doctor to achieve the highest expression of health by addressing the underlying causes of diseases.

The functional medicine service at New Age Medical Center utilizes alternative medicine to improve physiological functions of patients with chronic diseases. Instead of looking at and treating health problems as isolated diseases, it treats individuals who may have bodily symptoms, imbalances and dysfunctions. Functional medicine takes into consideration every aspect of a patient’s lifestyle, from environmental stimuli to genetic predispositions, with the goal of treating and preventing the underlying cause of the disease instead of merely ameliorating the symptoms.

Nutritional Deficiency: Occurs when the body doesn’t absorb the necessary amount of a nutrient. Deficiencies can lead to a variety of health problems, such as problems with digestion, skin problems, stunted or defective bone growth and even dementia.

Metabolic Detoxification: Under normal circumstances, your body is able to rid itself of harmful chemicals and pollutants. But sometimes, the sheer volume of toxins to which you are exposed can overwhelm natural processes and accumulate in your tissues. Add to that an unhealthy diet lacking in proper nutrients, and the problem can get even worse.

If you think it’s possible that you might be suffering some of those symptoms, please, call New Age Medical Center today or contact us below.
